Great crowds followed Jesus on his way and he said to them, “If you want to be
my disciple, you must love God more than anything else, even more than your
family and even more than you love yourself. If you really want to be my disciple,
you must be willing to carry your cross and follow me.” Then Jesus gave them
this example: “Suppose a builder wanted to build something. Would he
not first sit down and work out the cost to see if he had enough to
complete it? Otherwise, if he laid the foundation and then found himself
unable to finish the work, the onlookers would all start making fun
of him and saying, ‘Here is a man who started to build and was
unable to finish what he started.’ So, you must be willing to give up
everything you have if you want to be my disciple.”
Taken from the Gospel of Sunday 7th September. Luke 14:25-33 (the 23rd Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C)
